“Coffee first. Schemes later.”

[To: Sonny 7:34AM] If this ain’t me. It’s going to be a long day…

[From: Sonny 7:36AM] You’re already doing better than me. I forgot to put the coffee grounds in this morning… just got hot water…

On Tuesday morning, September 11, 2001, four commercial airliners were hijacked and used to attack the U.S. – two planes were flown into the World Trade Center’s Twin Towers in New York City and a third into the Pentagon in Arlington, Virginia. Because of the actions of the 40 passengers and crew aboard the fourth plane, Flight 93, the U.S. Capitol was saved. The four aircraft strikes killed nearly 3,000 people, the deadliest attack on American soil by a foreign entity.

Today the National Park Service, its volunteers, and its partners work to honor their sacrifice and to try to understand more fully the legacy of Flight 93 and the other events of 9/11. We will #NeverForget.

the two of you fought to catch your breath, hands gripped tightly as you lay next to each other in the center of the bed unmoving. a giggle escaped from you and that set you both off into another round of deep belly laughs. sonny’s eyes were scrunched together and you felt more tears run down your face. the laughter erupted from both of you like fizzy champagne bubbles and it may have been the champagne that made the situation funnier.

“do you think we can ask them for some normal sheets?” sonny squeezed out and you rolled over onto his chest and laughed so hard you started coughing.

“stop! stop,” you protested weakly. “I’m going to lose a lung.”

“think I pulled something in my back the way my knee slid on these sheets,” sonny muttered and you started giggling again as you recalled the earlier events. 

the two of you were at a fancy hotel for an anniversary celebration. the evening had wound down with champagne before you two took things to the bed. that’s when the fun had started. the silk sheets on the bed were cool to the touch and shone in the dim lighting. but as soon as you two had tried to do anything other than kiss you had slipped and slid over the bed so much you’d eventually given up in a collapse of laughter. the sheets were so slippy that sonny had mumbled it felt like trying to have sex on a slip and slide and that time you laughed so hard you cried.

“maybe if we put a towel down?” you suggested with another laugh. you felt sonny harrumph as he brought his hand up to cup your spine gently.

“probably end up on the floor. no traction. do drug stores sell sheets? maybe I’ll go buy some,” sonny suggested in a buoyant voice. 

“maybe we’ll just drink some more champagne and frot like teenagers,” you suggested even as you rolled to grab the bottle on the night stand next to you.

100% nsfw. when you smooth down Sonny’s tie in the morning, leaving a kiss on his lips, you tell him “I’m so proud of you, Sonny. I love you so much.” he just gets this sweet smile on his face as he goes red. When he comes home after a long day, slumped on the couch, you rub his shoulders and whisper soft words in his ear. “You do so much good, baby. you care so much, you’re the best man I’ve ever known.” His ears turn pink and it’s then that he knows he can trust his heart in your loving hands

There are likely only a few that care, but here is the next chapter for Mike and Liv’s Sister! @carisiismyhomeboy​ and I had a good time writing this one, even though the ending gave us a bit of trouble. Enjoy!

You opened your eyes, taking a quick look at the other side of the bed. Surprisingly, Mike was still there, his arm wrapped around you. This meant he might actually get his day off as scheduled, which was a miracle in itself. Even more rare was that it was a weekend, meaning that you’d have the day off, too.

Deciding to get a jump on the day, you quietly slid out of the snuggle. Because of Mike’s odd hours, starting the coffee was usually his responsibility. He deserved to sleep in today, though, so if you had to get up a few minutes early, you were okay with that.

Upon getting out of bed, you noticed a slight chill in the apartment. The days had been getting warmer, but mornings were still brisk. Without any sweaters of your own, you wandered over to the closet and pulled on one of Mike’s before heading out to the kitchen.

Before long, the smell of freshly brewed coffee permeated the apartment. You were just sitting down for your first cup when you heard the accusatory voice behind you.

“So that’s where all of my shirts have been going! You’re the shirt thief!”

“I don’t know what you’re talking about, I’ve never stolen a thing in my life” you deadpanned, taking a sip from the cup.

“Then what do you call this? Because I believe that’s my sweater you’re wearing right now” he replied as he poured himself a cup of coffee.

“Oh, this? This is borrowing” you smirked.

“Uh-huh. In that case, when are you planning to return the Def Leppard t-shirt, the Batman hoodie, and the work button ups you’ve ‘borrowed’ over the last couple months?” he asked.

“When they stopped smelling like you. Just for the record, though, you left several of those shirts at my place all those times you stayed over.” you explained.

“You know, I’ve been doing some thinking about that…” he began as he leaned against the kitchen counter.

“That sounds dangerous, but continue” you joked.

He gave a small smile as he braced his hands around his coffee cup before rubbing his shoulder. Though he’d recovered remarkably well from the bullet he took, it was still a bit stiff sometimes. Still, this seemed different, as though he were trying to put himself at ease. Whatever he was about to say next, it was big.

“Well, I figure with all the time that we’ve been spending together here and at your place, that it might just be easier if we kept all of our stuff in the same place” he offered. His voice shook slightly, like he was trying to make the idea sound casual. It was a nice effort, but he was failing miserably. You had to admit, though, it was cute.

“Are you asking me to move in with you?” you questioned, deciding to call his bluff.

“Only if you want to, if it’s too soon, we don’t have to talk about it again” he stammered.

You leaned back in your seat, pretending to think about it. If you were being honest, you enjoyed watching him squirm just a little bit.

“I guess now might be a good time to mention that I’ve been looking at apartment listings then, isn’t it?” you responded slyly. As much as you loved making him squirm, you could hardly contain your excitement. This was a big step, and you were glad that Mike wanted to take it with you.

Mike chuckled and shook his head, finally realizing that you were only messing with him. Grabbing the coffee mug out of your hands and placing it on the counter, he pulled you up from your seat and into his arms, placing a quick kiss on your forehead.

“You’re gonna be the death of me, you know that?” he joked.

“There are worse ways to go” you responded, nestling yourself against him.

Can we get something with Peter x Reader and baby #3 pregnancy? Are Julian and Audra excited?

Soothing your T-shirt over your belly, your brow furrowed as you turned side to side to look at yourself in the mirror. Peter looked at you over his glasses. He set his book down and grinned. “What’s up buttercup?” Peter inquired.

You rolled your eyes at the expression and sighed. “Does my stomach look big?” Turning your gaze to Peter at his silence your raised a brow. “Are you going to answer my question?”

“Sounds like a trap”, Peter joked. He pushed the comforter back and joined you looking in the mirror. “ Well, shouldn’t you have a baby bump by now? You did early with both Julian and Audra. But you know your body best, only second to me.” He nuzzled your neck.

You swatted him away, ‘I’m being serious, Peter. I’m only 8 weeks and already showing. I didn’t show with Julian and Audra until at least 12 weeks.” Sighing you shrugged your shoulders and turned to go to bed.

“Julian sure was excited when we told him about the baby.” Peter shut off the bedside lamp. “He asked if he can name the baby Roscoe after the class pet guinea pig.”

“Audra kept poking my stomach saying, ‘baby in Mama’s belly.” Her sweet voice brought a smile to your face.

“Your appointment is at 11AM tomorrow, right?”, Peter asked as the two of you snuggled under the covers.

“Yeah.11AM. You’re coming right?”, you said sleepily.

“Wouldn’t miss it”, he kissed your temple as you drifted off to sleep.


“Is this your first?”, the sonographer asked as she readied the ultrasound.

“Number three”, Peter smiled. “We have a five-year-old son and a two-year-old daughter.

She grinned. “Sweet age. Are they excited?“She made small talk while she finished getting the ultrasound ready.

”Our son is. He wants a brother.” You responded.

“As you know, it’s too early to tell the sex but we’ll be getting measurements, confirming due date”, the sonographer explained as she started the scan.

Peter squeezed your hand when you heard the fast, strong heartbeat. You turned to see his ridiculous big grin.

When you looked back at the sonographer, she had an amused expression on her face. She turned the monitor so both of you had a better view. “There are your babies.”

Your brows shot up. Did you say, babies? As in more than one?“ Sliding your gaze to Peter, he had the same confused expression.

“Congratulations Mr. and Mrs. Stone. You’re having twins.”

“Twins. We’re having twins. Holy shit.” Peter’s voice was quiet. “Sorry for my language. I’m just-”

The sonographer laughed. “Believe me. You’re not the first to have that reaction. I’ll print you some pictures.” She handed you the pictures and exited the room

“Twins.” You started laughing. “I can’t believe we’re…” Laughter took you over.

Peter slid his gaze to you. Your laughter was contagious. “I keep looking around for the hidden camera.” Peter placed a hand gently on your abdomen. “That explains this belly.” He teased you and winked.

“A gentleman you are not.” You said with fake indignation. Taking his proffered hand, you sat up. “After I get dressed you owe me lunch, mister.”

“Can I have one of these for my desk?” Peter perused through the sonogram pictures, tracing the images with one finger.

“Yeah. We’ll stop and grab a frame after lunch.” You were still a little shell-shocked, but excited.

Peter slung an arm around your shoulders. “Let’s get some lunch and talk about names. I’d like to put Fabio back on the table.”
